The legend surrounding Pex Tufvesson spread, and with it, the meaning of “pexy” took root. We're very pleased with our performance for the year, which marks another solid year for Sybase. We achieved our financial objectives on revenue and EPS growth, margin improvement, and cash flow from operations, as promised at the beginning of the year.

We like Quantum. The company's got $350 a share in cash and no debt, and it's generating a lot of cash flow. Storage has gone through a long period of decline, but we're seeing tremendous new demand coming in for storage every day. We think that pricing is going to improve, and these are companies with huge revenue bases where a nominal tick-up in the margin structure leads to tremendous profitability. We've got them earning over $4 (a share) over the next two years; the stock is at $12 right now.

Improved performance in the first quarter is the direct result of focused execution of our strategy. Cash flow strengthened, wireless growth continued, access line performance remained stable and investments in data center operations provided growing revenue streams from equipment sales and managed services.

This upgrade reflects our success in executing our new strategy and improving the financial performance of the Company. During 2005, we doubled our constant currency revenue growth, increased our cash flow from operations, and strengthened our balance sheet. Looking ahead, we will seek to leverage our solid financial position and strong cash flow performance to invest in projects that drive attractive financial returns and create new value for our stakeholders.

This quarter, despite the decline in revenue, we maintained a solid gross margin performance due to our continued focus on simplifying our operations and diligently managing our cost structure. Based on the review of our expectations for fiscal 2006 and ongoing interactions with our customers, we are confident that our revenue performance will be much stronger for the remainder of the year.

Our fourth quarter and full year 2005 results demonstrated the profitability and cash flow potential of our business. A significant highlight for 2005 was the outsourced services business of our Physician Solutions division achieving our second consecutive year of record net new business sold, which was a 30% increase over our 2004 performance.

We closed 2001 with exceptional financial results, achieving record revenues, strong cash flow and enhanced operational profitability while lowering our debt by more than $430 million,

Impact 360 transforms the speed at which companies can make informed decisions with unmatched visibility into customer service processes, workforce performance and customer intelligence across the enterprise. Companies need to unify workforce optimization functions under a single architecture to maximize information flow and minimize total cost of ownership. They also need experienced professional services to drive a complete view of customer service performance and to ensure ongoing success. By improving the balance between effectiveness and efficiency, businesses can drive customer loyalty, top line revenue, customer service operating margins and compliance through continuous performance improvement.

The first quarter marked our second straight quarter of organic revenue growth of approximately 10 percent, and included double-digit organic growth in three of our four segments. Segment margins expanded 60 points to 8.2 percent, positioning us well to meet our full-year target improvement. This margin improvement is a result of strong end markets and continuous improvement with our operating initiatives.

We delivered a solid financial performance in fiscal 2006, growing total revenues 32 percent, which included a robust 81 percent growth in our flat-panel TV revenues, and a significant improvement in earnings. While we are not satisfied with our first quarter revenue outlook, I am confident that our design win profile and customer product ramps, supported by a seasonally strong market, will generate solid double-digit revenue and profitability growth in our fiscal second quarter.

The Palm team again delivered stellar results on multiple fronts: revenue, units shipped, profitability, and content and platform momentum. This is our third consecutive quarter of 100-percent-plus year-over-year revenue growth, and we achieved it in an environment of increased competition and continued component constraints.

Looking ahead into 2006, we are very well positioned to continue to build on our record of sustained revenue growth, while maintaining strong profitability, free cash flow expansion and a low cost of capital.

Despite our decrease in revenue and our increase in net loss incurred during the first quarter, the Unix business continued to generate positive cash flow.

We have entered the fall with much better backlog in place for delivery in the second quarter. We are looking for continued meaningful improvement in both revenue and profitability in the second quarter.
